Quick Tips to Prevent Bacterial Vaginosis
Two quick tips to help you avoid bacterial vaginosis:
- Try to limit your number of sexual partners. Having many sex partners can change your vaginas balance and it increases your chances of coming down with bacterial vaginosis.
- Don’t douche
Bacterial vaginosis can be spread between two women by sexual contact. If you have a female sex partner consider using a condom. Make sure to wash shared sex toys after use.
Bacterial vaginosis does not get passed between a man and a woman; therefore doctors do not consider it to be a sexually transmitted disease. Women who have STD’s are much more likely to experience bacterial vaginosis.
Make sure to practice safer sex! Preventing STD’s is a lot easier than treating them after the fact.

Why Antibiotics Are Bad For Recurring Bacterial Vaginosis
You have two options when you treat recurring bacterial vaginosis… You can take some antibiotics… Or you can try the homeopathic route.
I definitely recommend the homeopathic route! If you go to the doctor they will probably prescribe you some antibiotics such as: Metronidazole, Clindamycin, or Cetriaxone. These are great in theory… but they tend to leave your body open for reinfection?
The main idea behind getting rid of bacterial vaginosis is to rebalance your body using herbs and supplements. You should also make sure to do things such as wear clean underwear daily… And make sure to wear cotton panties.
